Board development session to cover performance measures, curriculum, elementary structures and budget updates
Summary
The board’s development agenda included presentations on superintendent and board performance measures, investments in student learning (FOUNDATION assessment, MTSS, literacy and FAST assessments), an elementary structures timeline update, and a revised budget overview by the director of finance.
The board development portion of the Jan. 6 meeting set aside time for leadership development and a series of presentations on student learning and district structures.
Agenda items listed include School Board and Superintendent Performance Measures; a "Major Investment in Student Learning" segment covering FOUNDATION Assessment for Learning and Developmental Designs, focus on unique learners, MTSS (multi-tiered systems of support), curriculum (math and language arts), and a Comprehensive Literacy Framework (including dyslexia and FAST assessments). Jim Miklausich and Nika Summer were listed as presenters for the Elementary Structures timeline update (6:45–7:05). Bill Menozzi, Director of Finance, was listed as the presenter for a revised budget update (7:05–7:15). Student impact updates were scheduled with presenters Michelle Sieberg and Shaunya Kumar (7:15–7:30), followed by an MSBA overview from Kristi Peterson and time for upcoming meetings.
The board development session is described in the agenda as an educational and planning forum: minutes note that, per past practice, those sessions do not include public comment, livestream or recording, and no board action is taken on agenda items during development meetings. The agenda items identify curriculum and assessment priorities that will be further discussed in the development session and at future board meetings.
